Pros

Working with customers is great and brings great personal satisfaction. No pushy commission sales required. Great employee discounts on Bass Pro branded items. Best in the retail industry. Pro plan allows you to get great discounts on products within your department to evaluate and enjoy. Employee discounts on boats as well. Johnny Morris is truly a great person and a pleasure to be associated with.

Cons

Poor department managers. Can be very inflexible when it comes to schedules. Can be vindictive and use the schedule as punishment as well. They preach family values but truly have no concern for them. Not willing to pay for experience.

Pros

Good place for students, retirees, and a few people as a real job. The mix of people is good because they have a common interest in the outdoors.

Cons

It's a lot of menial labor and they are behind the times in systems and methods to improve the business. Turn over is extremely high which speaks loudly about the operation. They arn't really concerned about the employees as they really don't get to know them.
